Wonder how SAO will do compared to the PSP release last year. I'm hoping for a 100-150k opening but don't these kinds of games typically score high on COMG?

But Sword Art Online is basically absent from the ranking.
The one we are seeing is the LE, which is not good to draw conclusions upon when we want to forsee the salesfigures.

Slightly concerned about that drop for DQM, it has absolutely piss-poor legs (seriously, I can't think of a game as front-loaded as the 1st one) so if pre-orders and therefore, the FW are weak, it's unlikely to be able to leg its way back up later on.

Other than that a nice enough update, the sales split for Diva F 2 will be interesting, hopefully given that the first one did best on Vita the fanbase there will help PSV version outsell the PS3 one even though it doesn't have the advantage of launching first this time

What game are you talking about?

Sorry, Kresnik's right, i meant the 3DS remake of the first game DQM game from the GBC days (Terry's Wonderland I think its called)

Also is your sig is from the end of the first chapter of Norwegian Wood isn't it? Great book, I wanted to get into Murakami and asked for it as a christmas present, read it all in about 3 or 4 days. You have great taste!

@ Kresnik - Just to back up what I said, it has sold 53.8% of its sales just in the first week, though you're definitely right to say that DQ7 seems to be even more front-loaded with FW sales making up 67.5% of the current total, though of course it's had fewer weeks so in theory that should drop as time passes. What made me think DQM was so front-loaded (not that it isn't) was actually its YTDs - 928k in 6 months of 2012 but just 28k in the whole of 2013, a 97% drop.

In retrospect that seems like a fairly standard JRPG pattern for DQM3D, I take it that proper mainline entries hold better?

As for the daily, pretty slow except for DQM (ironically)

Well is not as front loaded as others JRPG.

Lets see. Acording to MC Top 1000 for the year 2012,

Game	Release Date	First Week	Sales up to Dec-2012	FW/Total sales up to 2012
DQM: Terry's Wonderland	2012/05/31	513.183	919.870	56%
Dragon Quest X (Wii)	2012/08/02	367.148	609.783	60%

Final Fantasy III (PSP)	2012/09/20	44.872	89.644	50%
P3: Portable (Budget)	2011/08/11	7176	109.832	6%
Pokemon Black/White	2010/09/18	2.557.779	5.504.495	46%
Pokemno Black 2/White 2	2012/06/22	1.561.738	2.919.977	53%
Dragon Quest V (Budget)	2010/03/4	8.188	170.576	5%
Tales of Vesperia (Budget)	2012/08/02	7.738	47.473	16%
Dragon Quest VI (Budget)	2011/03/02	2.499	104.127	2%
Dragon Quest IX (Budget)	2010/03/04	40.797	253.523	16%

I stopped at 300, and tried to check the last one to check if there were some really leggy ones but the translation was messed up. Then, it is definitely not an evergreen titles as others found in 3DS, but neither it is the most front loaded. Of course, we could do a more rigorous analisys, but I think this would be enough to at least conclude that.

And yup, Norwegian Wood was my first Murakami book, and that first chapter is just incredibly powerful.

Yakuza PS4 is on the move all of a sudden. Wonder what sparked that.

One Vita owner visited COMG today. Excellent.

And don't worry. The Harvest Moon scoundrel felt so bad about what he did that he came back.
